December 6, 2018: Christian Capocaccia, Symphoria

Maestro Christian Capocaccia and Symphoria have a very busy weekend coming up! They are joined by the Syracuse University Oratorio Society under director John Warren for four performances of the shortened “Christmas Messiah,” as well as a performance of the complete “Messiah” oratorio by Handel on Saturday night.

Christian stopped into the WCNY studios to chat with mid-day host Diane Jones about the performances, and how a work like this helps to bring all of us together as a community, as well as his work with the Symphoria Youth Orchestras. We covered everything form “Singin’ In The Rain” to sonnet form to calligraphy – and of course, the incredible music of Handel.
